To distinguish the two‚ I performed the simmons citrate test on them. Since the tube stayed green I confirmed that my organism was Staphylococcus. My organism B could not degrade citrate‚ so that meant my organism was not Bacillus subtilis. In conclusion‚ my unknown organisms were Staphylococcus and Enterobacter aerogenes. REFERENCES Kidane‚

Mark Lindgren MLA Research Paper Dr. Cherif Correa Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering in Plants In the 1920’s‚ a man named Henry Wallace founded a company called “The Hi-Bred Corn Company.” He began selecting corn plants that flourished in certain aspects and bred them with other prosperous plants to make a hybrid. After pollenating the female silk of one plant with the pollen of another; the resulting offspring displayed both traits. This idea of ‘selective breeding’ would go on to become
